Chapter 5.7 - Disaster Children

Hello all!

Remember when I said that I would try to get stuff done before the new Fire Emblem game came out because I am a weak human being and Nintendo owns my soul?

Yeah, that happened. I've spent the equivalent of an entire day playing this damn game and I'm not even finished yet.

Nintendo owns my soul and my card details.

And I would quite happily gush about FE: Three Houses for hours, but that's not what you're all here for. You are all here for the disaster that is the McKracken family.

Last time, Sebastian's Imaginary Friend turned into a real girl, and Christine was beginning her transformation into Martha 2.0.

A more grumpy, less psycho Martha, but a Martha nonetheless.

Case in point:

I missed the birthday shots because I was too busy trying to age up three Sims without a) something catching on fire, and b) my game crashing. Anyways, here is Christine, post makeover. I normally make a point about not reusing hairstyles for Sims, but Chloe has the same hair as Candace, so I figured I'd let Christine have the same hair as Martha. Her nose is a lot more prominent as well. Sorry, Christine!

Her teenage trait is Rebellious, which worries me.

Sebastian aged up with that hair, so I kept it. He also grew up with that jacket, so I changed it to be his favourite colour. He looks like a tough punk would beat you up behind the bike shed and steal your money, but he is an actual sweetheart. Fitting that his teenage trait is Shy. You ain't fooling anyone, Sebastian.

Riley looks like she got dressed in the dark. I've had that hairstyle for ages, and have only just got round to using it. Her face caved in when she aged up, so I had to do some emergency facial surgery to save myself from the nightmares.

You're welcome.

Despite all this, her teenage trait is Nurturing.

Christine: What do you want?

Lilac: I was just wondering why you wanted to go skinny dipping with your grandfather, that's all.

CHRISTINE, WTF.

In another case of "WTF", teenagers can go to the bar.

Riley: Should we really be doing this?

Christine: We're eighteen years old, it's not like we're breaking the law.

Sebastian: We're only sixt...

Christine: WE ARE EIGHTEEN YEARS OLD AND WE ARE LEGALLY ALLOWED TO DO THIS.

Christine: Sup, peasants.

As you can see, Christine's love for funky socks has carried over into her teenage years.

Sebastian: Great, now that we're here, what do we do?

Christine: Order a drink, of course.

Riley: I want no part in this.

Chrstine: Ah yes, the liquor of the gods.

Riley: I still want no part in this.

Sebastian: I suppose one drink won't hurt... Must it be lit on fire, though?

Christine: Hey, why wasn't mine set alight?

At this point, Riley ushered the other two home to avoid being out after curfew.

Aww, Christine looks so sad.

Wait, never mind.

Christine: I could have easily avoided the police.

The next day, both Sebastian and Christine started having mood swings. These mood swings affected them in different ways. Sebastian started feeling a bit more grumpy, whereas the Grump Queen actually showed some other emotion other than Resting Bitch Face.

Sebastian: Ugh, I don't want to do anything today! Everything sucks!

Christine: I feel no different.

Christine: Actually, maybe I do feel a little different :)

I want to protect that smile at all costs.

She may be a walking disaster child, but at least she does have her rare moments that make me want to pinch her cheeks.

*maniacal laughter*

YES.

I want to see what happens to my three disaster children without the adults around. 

Starting with the school dance.

These two idiots asked each other out at the same time.

As soon as I accepted one notification, the other one popped up.

They are a mess.

Miss Grump Queen herself was voted Prom Queen.

I feel like this only happened because everyone is terrified of her.

Well then...

That makes me job a little easier.

Sebastian is Prom King, which I think happened because Sebastian is a nice young man who won't set booby traps or get into fights with people.

Unlike a certain someone CHRISTINE.

Her photo is nice enough, even if does look she's trying so hard to be cool and edgy.

Sebastian and Riley have the same pose, just different backdrops. I think Christine getting into a fight probably broke the backdrop.

Wouldn't surprise me.

Another chapter comes to an end, and for the first time since I started this, the blog and my game are at the same point in time. I finished the teen's prom, and then quit the game to write this up. I'll try and get ahead of myself,  but I have a busy couple of days coming up so gaming will be scarce D:

Anyhow, I can at least reveal the Generation Six rolls, and they are quite something:

• Second Chance
• Five Children
• Film (Acting)
• Medical
• Music (Rock Star)
• 5-Star Celebrity
• The Joker

Christine, being a famous celebrity and an actress?

Why do I hate myself?

See you next time!

Chapter 5.6 - A New Addition

Hello again!

So, remember when I said that the heatwave died down and everything was back to normal?

Well, that turned out to not be the case. As of right now, it is 33 degrees C outside (92 F for those across the pond), and I am dying from the heat. There was a monster thunder storm the other night that kept me up all night, so that was fun.

Anyways, I am writing it now because I figured that it won't cool down for a while, and I need to get something out to stop the little voice in my brain from going mental.

Also, I turned 25 on Monday (22nd), and this blog turned six months old on Tuesday (23).

*blows party horn*

Last time, Robin aged into an elder, and the Gen Six spawn aged into children. There were also glitchy fairies, ghosts who stayed up was past their bedtime, and more novels being churned out.

The last chapter ended with the Grump Queen herself, so let's also start with her.

Christine: Ughhhhhh

I have no idea what is wrong with her this time, but I don't think anyone does.

Cheer up, you're going to the Autumn Festival!

And here you see three generations of McKrackens, all shoving their face into blueberry pie.

You ready to see something equally hilarious and horrifying?

Christine: Yay. I won.

Christine: What fun.

Chloe:  Dad? I think my daughter might be a demon child.

Robin: Agreed.

Back at the house:

Riley: What is this, human friend?

Sebastian: A potion to make you real. Then we'll see who's the crazy one!

It's still you, Sebastian. Still you.

Riley Fields was a Vanilla Face child, so a quick make over made her less Vanilla-y. Her hair was the weird mouldy green colour, so I made it a more pleasing pinky/red to suit her overall theme. Her traits are: Adventurous, Friendly, and Bookworm. She likes French music, eating Stu Surprise, and the colour violet. Her starsign is Cancer.

Whilst this was happening, other exciting news was going through the household:

Lilac got a promotion to Band Manager;

Daisy got promoted to a Minor Leaguer;

Chloe published two novels,

Completed a writing challenge,

And got her Lifetime Wish.

Hell yes!

Riley: Human f-, I mean, Sebastian, thank you for making me real.

Sebastian: Don't worry about it, Riley...

Riley: What is it, Sebastian?

Well...

I didn't realise who pointy I made her nose D:

It looks so normal from the front.

Riley, I'm sorry!

Life went by as normal for the family after they suddenly gained another child, and one thing that remained the same was ghosts not going back to their graves when the sun is up.

It's always the same two ghosts: Nate and Bai.

GO BACK TO BED, YOU TWO!

Now, I am all for the two founders coming in to check on the family and all that jazz, but do they need to stay out when it's clearly day time?!

Chloe: Oh God, I am haunted by the ghosts of my ancestors!

You have been since you were a child. Chill.

Chloe: Listen, great-great-grandfather Bai, you are welcome around here... But it is in the middle of the day.

Bai: I want to check in on my descendents, that's all. It's so nice to see the family is still going strong :D

Chloe: AhhhhhhHHHhhh!

And this surprises absolutely no-one.

Midlife Crisis aside, Chloe still looks really pretty. She still loves her neon green jackets, even if she doesn't wear them that often due to her Proper trait.

I installed a mod that gives supernatural Sims normal lifespan, but it's doesn't always work perfectly. So I had to cheat to age Lilac and Daisy up so they wouldn't be young adults when Sebastian is a teenager.

Daisy may have calmed down with the dramatic hairstyle and make up, but she still loves the neon yellow. Really she is an excuse to use all the Supernatural clothing I haven't used yet.

Lilac is the same as she was, just with some less fancy clothing. Again, I used her as an excuse to use some clothing I got from a stuff pack.

Out of all three ladies, only Chloe had a Midlife Crisis.

Sounds about right.

Though when you consider that she has Christine to deal with, you start to understand why.

Christine: Can you please not? I'm trying to do my homework here.

Sebastian: Hear ye, hear ye! Prince Sebastian is here to stake his claim on the throne!

Christine: You dolt! You're not even a part of my family!

Riley: So this is what cake tastes like :O

Ahh, the joys of having three children in the same household.

And another chapter comes to a close. I'm sorry about the long wait. As I've said, me and heatwaves don't go together at all, and I've only managed to write this out by guzzling down fruit smoothies like they're water D:

See you next time, when I hopefully won't wait six days to write a single chapter.
